Volunteer Recruitment

POST AN ADD ONLINE

In order to ensure that the service meets your needs efficiently, please read the instructions below carefully before submitting a request for volunteers.

How does the volunteer recruitment service work?

1 Make sure your organization’s membership with the VBM is valid, otherwise, you can become a member.

2 Prepare a request for volunteers that is specific, includes a description of the task, and describes the role of volunteers in your organization.

3 Fill out a request for volunteers using the form below. Only requests submitted using the form will be processed. All submissions received through email or fax will be refused.

4 Since your contact information will be displayed in your requests, potential volunteers will be encouraged to contact you directly to offer their services.

5 Let us know when:

you recruit a volunteer that we referred;

a request is no longer valid;

you have changes to make to a request.

What to know before making a request

The VBM:

Does not have a bank of volunteers. We recommend that you allow for a reasonable period of time to ensure you recruit the volunteers you need.

Does not perform background checks or screen volunteers we interview. Make sure to have your own procedures in place before you begin recruiting.

Does not refer volunteers to private addresses. Organizations must have a physical address. If your organization is online only and/or if a volunteer activity is done completely online, specify it in your request!

Does not recruit volunteers for political or religious purposes.

Does not recruit for foreign organizations. In fact, these organizations must work in partnership with an accredited Canadian organization to take advantage of our services.

If your membership expires, our system will automatically remove your requests at midnight on the expiration date.
